Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert G. Luna announced Friday that nearly a dozen deputies were injured during the ongoing riots.

The riots began June 6 as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) was conducting raids in the city and surrounding counties.

Luna said 10 deputies were injured after protesters hurled rocks, Molotov cocktails and “high-grade pyrotechnics” at them.

“We have been encountering some interesting weapons out there,” Luna said. “[There is a] big difference between the peaceful protesters and the individuals who are coming out with weapons to attack our folks.”

Since the onset of the protests, McDonnell said hundreds of people have been arrested.

He added that a curfew, which will remain in effect through the weekend, “has played a key role in helping to restore order, particularly by curbing the criminal activity that was largely occurring during the evening hours.”

CHP troopers will be on active patrol throughout the state looking for areas of concern.

There will also be a focus on protecting state infrastructure.
